Summary
The documentation exclusively demonstrates machine configuration assignment using Terraform for Windows virtual machines. All code examples reference azurerm_windows_virtual_machine resources, and the built-in configuration shown is AzureWindowsBaseline, which is Windows-specific. There are no examples, references, or guidance for Linux virtual machines or Linux-specific configurations. Additionally, the 'get-started' link points to a Windows PowerShell guide, further reinforcing a Windows-centric approach.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent examples for azurerm_linux_virtual_machine, showing how to assign configurations to Linux VMs.
- Include built-in configuration examples relevant to Linux, such as CIS or Ubuntu baselines.
- Provide links to Linux/macOS Terraform setup guides alongside the Windows PowerShell guide.
- Clearly state in the introduction which OS platforms are supported and provide parity in documentation structure.
